Cant track this Flight

Cant track this Flight?
So I recieved a flight itenerary from a freind who lives in England and flying in to visit me in San Antonio. I see the times on the itenerary but can't seem to find any corresponding flight on the airports arrival departure schedule. See if somebody could help me decipher this mess. Here is the Itenerary: United States - Important Travel Information KLM, like other airlines, is obliged due to American legislation to provide the American Immigration and Homeland Security with passenger reservation information (PNR). For more information, please refer to the KLM Privacy Policy. Departure From Heatrow (International) to San Antonio International Airport Departure/Arrival 21:50 Fri 22 Aug 2008 14:18 Sat 23 Aug 2008 Via Amsterdam (Schiphol), Detroit (Wayne County Airport) Flight details Departure From Heatrow(International) to Amsterdam (Schiphol) Flight number KL6039 Departure time 21:50 Fri 22 Aug 2008 Arrival time 05:55 Sat 23 Aug 2008 Class Economy Class Remarks Number of intermediate stops: 1 From Amsterdam (Schiphol) to San Antonio International Airport Flight number KL6039 Departure time 23:50 Fri 22 Aug 2008 Arrival time 05:55 Sat 23 Aug 2008 Class Economy Remarks Operated by Northwest Airlines From Heatrow(United Kingdom ) to San Antonio International Airport Flight number KL6703 Departure: 21:50 Fri 22 Aug 2008 Arrival time 05:55 Sat 23 Aug 2008 Flight duration 23:28 h Class Economy Remarks Total journey time: 23 hours 28 minutes Operated by Northwest Airlines Notice the flight numbers.....and track them using Flight stats. They are either already departed or already completed. Another note, the second flight number from Detroit to san antonio shows it arriving in Dallas, where is the connecting flight to San Antonio? flightstats.com already used. I can track the flight numbers and they have already arrived, but flight stopped in dallas not san antonio and times are off according to itenerary problem solved........long story

I would call the airline directly.

I think you friend sent you incorrect info. The break down of flights looks very suspicious, just looking at the departure/arrival cities and the time, which are repeated; bad cut & paste, I guess. The initial info is probably the only thing you can rely on, arrival in San Antonio 8/23 at 2:18pm. However, looking a little further, the only flight that would go between Detroit and San Antonio is KL5066 (codeshare N1066), arriving at 3:39pm !? .

11:30 am.
2 :
12:00 Noon
3 :
11.00-11.30
4 :
You should generally get there an hour before the flight is to leave but I would go for 2 hours early. I was bumped off a flight once when I was an hour early.
5 :
I believe you should be there 2 hrs early.
6 :
You should arrive at the airport at 12 pm. You may have to go through extra security. If your flight is at 1:30 they will start boarding at 1 . Have fun in Atlanta
7 :
11:30 AM. Never assume anything goes according to plan when flying. There's the security check point, checking into your flight, checking luggage, and your flight might get cancelled. If you're there early enough, you could score a seat on another flight.
8 :
You should be fine arriving at 12:30. That means parked and INSIDE the terminal at 12:30. If you are not real familiar with that terminal you may be more comfortable being there by 12:00pm.
9 :
The general rule of thumb used to be 1 hr for domestic flights and 2 hrs for international. Lately a lot of airports have bumped it up to 2 hrs for domestic flights and 3 hrs for international flights. Depending on the airline and airport they tend to vary. I know that when flying out of ATL they refuse to check you in with luggage if its less than 45 mins prior to departure (and do they stick to it, got there once 44 minutes prior to departure and they bumped me to the later flight).
10 :
It is better to be 2 hours early than it is to be one minute late. When the airline closes the flight (usually 30 minutes to one hour before the flight departure), there is no negotiating.
11 :
always go 3 hrs early...speacilly during summer time the lines tend to get longer
12 :
About 12:00-12:30 should be fine if you only have carry-ons. If you don't have checked bags you can check in online tomorrow (Thursday) starting at 1:30 pm and go straight through security when you get to the airport. If you're checking bags, be there no later than noon (11:45-12:00 should be good). You'll check in on a kiosk and it will give you the option to check bags, you'll hit the # of bags, and the tags will print up at the ticket counter. You take the bags, the agent slaps the tags on, puts them on the belt and you head through security. The only wild card is how long the security line is, as your SAT-ATL flight is pretty open availability-wise so waiting in line to check your bags should not be an issue at all.

Stay away from the discounters and try the web sites of South West and a couple of others. You usually get better prices from the airlines themselves and you have a lot more flexibility.. Good luck.
3 :
I would try contacting galaxytravel@verizon.net or go to http://www.galaxy.joystar.com but usually they can get you better prices by contacting them.
4 :
